| - Terrible's Hotel & Casino isn't exactly the first choice for many, but five nights for $179.99 during AVN week, it simply could not be beat. Sure, it lacks just about everything the Hard Rock or any casino on the strip may have, but I knew that ahead of time. I wasn't too concerned on the amenities as I'd be out most of the time and my time within the casino would be limited. Terrible's offers a complementary shuttle form the airport, which saves you a $20 cab ride. Unfortunately, it's a little complicated getting to the shuttle. I suggest calling the hotel in advance and asking how to get to the pickup from your gate. The shuttle runs every hour.
The line to check in wasn't too bad but the front desk was a little cramped as the gambling floor extended as far is it could. I wasn't expecting to get the newly remodeled rooms but as I checked in, I saw on my bill that I was being given the newly remodeled rooms. I couldn't believe it. Great deal. After being given our keys, we headed to the third floor. I was less than optimistic as I walked through the hallways and the walls were in the middle of being torn down, wall paper ripped, doors open, and empty hotel rooms. I didn't know I booked a stay at the Bates Motel.
However, once I opened my room door, I was more than surprised, as it was a great looking room. It was a double bed occupancy with a 42" flat panel, a table and two chairs, a nightstand, and a cabinet for those that actually put away their clothing. The bathroom seemed to be overlooked in the remodel but it was more thank okay with me. The room was exactly what I needed at a bargain price during an expensive week in Vegas. An ice machine was right outside our room which never made any noise that kept us up.
We never spent too much time exploring the hotel, but we did visit the bar once, as well as the sports book lounge. We made plans of getting their early breakfast or late dinner but never got around to it. My only complaint would have to be trying to get more towels after midnight, yet I was unable to reach housekeeping and I was too lazy to go down to the front desk. However, had I had the maids clean my room daily this would have never been an issue. Nevertheless, Terrible's was a great place to stay on the cheap. The Hard Rock is next door and you have a shopping plaza with decent places to get lunch or dinner.
Pros:
+ Competitive rates
+ Great value
+ Free shuttle from the airport (every hour and by reservation)
+ Newly remodeled rooms
+ Proximity to Hard Rock Hotel & Casino
+ Shopping plaza
Cons:
- $9.95 WIFI (24hrs)
